Connect your Google account

Connect your Google account

TL;DR: After installing the app, you need to authorize two connections — first with  monday.com , then with Google Calendar. Both happen in the same flow, takes about 2 minutes total.

Before you start

  • Google Calendar Integration Plus must be installed on your  monday.com  account. If you haven't done that yet →  Installation & Authentication⁠ 
  • Have a board open where the app has been added — you'll see the board view ready to connect.
  • Have your Google account credentials on hand — you'll need them to sign in during the flow.

Authorize with  monday.com 

The first connection authorizes the app to work within your  monday.com  account.
    Click CONNECT TO  MONDAY.COM  on the board view
    Review the permissions the app is requesting
    Click Authorize to grant access
This lets the app read and write data on your boards (items, columns, subitems) to keep them in sync with your calendar.

Connect to Google Calendar

The second connection authorizes access to your Google calendar.
    Click CONNECT TO GOOGLE CALENDAR
    A Google sign-in window will open — select your account or enter your credentials

Complete the setup

Once both connections are authorized:
    Click CONTINUE TO SETUP on the confirmation screen
    On "Choose a Google Calendar account to connect", click the Google Calendar Credentials dropdown (use + Add connection to add another Google account)
    Select your connected email address and click Next
You're now connected and ready to configure your first sync.

Verify the connection

  • On My Syncs, scroll down to Connected Google Calendar Accounts — your email should appear with a green Active status
  • If you see an error, try the flow again — transient network issues can interrupt the redirect

Common gotchas

  • Each user connects their own Google account — there's no shared/admin-level connection
  • The token stays valid until you revoke it or your Google Workspace admin changes policies
  • If the token expires, you'll be prompted to re-authenticate (see  Re-authenticate with Google⁠  )
  • Your credentials are never stored by the app — only the OAuth token

Next up

Your account is connected — now configure your first sync.
